HORACE BAKER, 82 f Commissioner of Crown Lands. THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY SINCE Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts have been iprected to construct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by large machinery instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever become generally useful and popular, must be portable, like au Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i. c. t in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has at last succedcd in completely realizing this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution in all branches of lighting. Our Electric Lamp needs neither ji/achinerg, Conductors , nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor disagreeable iu manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting trill be as cheap as gas (£ cents per hour), and it has before the latter the immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impured, and remains at the same degree of temperature. It is further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire , explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key is left open ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further preferable to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons : (1.) Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. (2.) That the Lamp is portable, and can be removed like any Oil Lamp, from any Oil Lamp, from one place to another. (».) That it neither requires the disagreeable fixing of the wick, or the clearing of the cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps. (4.) That the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equul in power of lighting to gas. can be regulated to any degree.

(5.) That every danger of fire is absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish immediately, if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. (G.) That it will burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed for the present in three different sizes : A. small size. Height of complete Lamp, 14 inches : weight, about 5 pounds : for lighting rooms, cellars, storage hous* 8, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives are kept), coaches illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose. Pi ice, £l. Per Lamp, delivered free to any part of the world. li, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, houses, etc. This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has removable white ground Glass Globe. Price, per Lamp (inclusive of Bronze Foot aud Globe, richly and elegantly constructed) £2. delivered free to any part of the world. C. Grand size for parlor, Hall, Saloon, Public Building, &c. The lamp gives u most brilliant and steady light, has large removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and the workmanship is both firstclass and elegant. Price £4. 10. Foot of Lamp in either Bronze, Japanese, Faience or Silver Oxide. Any special size or design made to order. Estimates furnished. All Lamps arc ready for immediate use, and will be seut, securely packed in strong wooden box, with printed directions for use a quantity of chemicals sufficient for several months lighting, aud one extra burner for size A, aud two for size B and C. The necessary chemicals can be purchased in any Drug Store in even the smallest village. Every Lamp is accompanied by a written guarantee for one year, and will be exchanged or money refunded, if the same should not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six Lamns and above, a discount of six per cent-. wHI be allowed No orders from abroad tilled, unless accompanied by a remittance to cover the amount, or first class references on a New York or Philadelphia house. Hie best method of sending money is by draft on new York, which can be procured at any Banker, aud everywhere or enclose the amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage stamps of any country of the world. All orders, the smallest, as well as the most important, will receive the same particular attention, and will be forwarded without delay.
